This paper proposes a multi-port berth allocation problem (MPBAP) under a cooperative
environment, which aims to determine berthing times and berthing positions for all …

In maritime shipping, sharing economy could prove to be a valuable approach. Nowadays.
because of the prevalence of transhipment, and alliance of ship liners, a port with multiple …

In the design of green ports, the strategic decision on what types of container transportation
equipment are appropriate is extremely important. Yard trucks (YTs) are indispensable in …

Uncertainty and non-deterministic nature of the real world makes planning and scheduling
in cross-docks a very complicated task for decision makers. These constant changes that …

Purpose–The purpose of this paper is to understand and explain how firms use simulation-
based decision support systems (DSSs) to optimize container space utilization …

Despite a significant number of studies that have focused on the operational efficiency of
container terminals, existing literature has paid little attention to improving energy efficiency …

In container terminals, yard trucks (YTs) are mostly used for transporting containers between
storage yards and berthing positions of vessels. Even though keeping a large number of YTs …

The planning decisions related to the assignment of quay cranes and internal trucks to the
berthed vessels in container terminals are typically made independently. However, a more …

To effectively decrease emissions and pollution emitted by equipment in container ports,
many ports began to update equipment using diesel fuels to achieve the aim of green ports …

This paper studies the assignment of quay cranes to the berthed vessels and the
assignment of internal trucks to each quay crane at container terminals. Previous studies …
